Polite Zing!s

Claiming your table with your keys or paper before you get in line to get your coffee is not cool.

Why is my 18-year-old daughter, who has just voted for the first time, receiving a “voter report card” saying: “You weren’t a voter in any of the last five general elections”?

Lord help those poor folks in Jersey, but … how many of them saw the storm coming for a week and didn’t fill up their cars and gas cans before it got there?

Yes, our president is being praised for doing his job, post-Sandy. Just as Bush II and “doing-a-heck-of-a-job Brownie” did, post-Katrina.

Romney is now down to Obama by 20 points in Massachusetts, where he was governor. Maybe they know something.

On the day of my colonoscopy, one of the solutions in the crossword puzzle was “D R A N O.”

Dear Zing, here is a little Haiku for you! Using kids for ads/Campaign cuteness for your gain/Flagrantly no shame

Is it too late for an adult to qualify to run in the Stewart-Maddox city commission race?

Rick Scott decided one week for early voting is enough. Wonder if His Highness will stand in the very long line with us Commoners or be escorted to the front of the line? I vote, WAIT YOUR TURN, Dude!

Last Zing! I had was in early Sept. Guess I’ll have to stoop to witty weather and mud slinging Zing!s Have you heard the one about Sandy?

Hey, Jersey and NYC. Who’s laughing now! Signed NOLA.

Can we please have some guidance on the Soil and Water Supervisor election? Which candidate supports conservation and which is opposed?

Innovation Park needs a lead tenant. I suggest a Wal-Mart.

If you want something that will survive heat along a roadway, and is native to this area, plant sandspurs.

Ignore Gore? Just try. Irene and Sandy are singing his song.

My memory is so bad, it won’t let me forget things I want to forget.

Someone needs to tell Obama that the Marines still use bayonets.

Say “Romney-Ryan Real Recovery Road Rally” three times, quickly. No, for real. It starts today in Wisconsin and then ends.

It sure is hard to send someone to Congress who says “I approve dis message”

The attorney’s who rated Judge Tamayo as unqualified in the Tallahassee Bar Association Judicial Poll are the attorneys who KNOW her best!

I guess the maglab was working overtime trying to conjure up some rain.

So the maglab blew a fuse after repelling Hurricane Sandy.

If you think Obama hasn’t been doing his job for 4 years, lets’ talk about Dubya’s month long vacations cutting brush. Obama has been tirelessly working for us, not his own ranch.

Does Obama’s “lead from behind” style arise from him being a horse’s ass?

Wanna bet Obama claims credit for all the jobs arising from the post-Sandy cleanup? And blames Romney for the storm itself? Nah, we all know the storm was Bush’s fault.

I’m taking bets on where the October “official” unemployment and jobless rates will be revised and adjusted upward to once the election is over. Trend during the last nearly four years has been to quietly revise and adjust them upward after publicly posting the lower, less damning rates.

On Nov 6 go to the polls (unless you’ve already used up your allowed number of votes) and give Obama and Biden their eviction notices.

Obama says he wants to “get automatic weapons that kill…out of the hands of criminals and the mentally ill.” Absolutely, Prez! Criminals and crazies having firearms is ILLEGAL under a truckload of existing laws so, Mr. Chief Executive, DO YOUR JOB and ENFORCE THE LAW! Bet you could retask your 10,000 new IRS agents from enforcing Obamacare to doing some actual public safety law enforcement.

The USSR tried Obamanomics, Five Year Plan by Five Year Plan, for over 70 years and never got a robust economy going. Why should we give Obama and his proven failures another four years to extend our economic misery?

FEMA is unnecessary. All it does is “coordinate” with added waste and delay. Everything being done – food, fuel, shelter – would be done anyway VOLUNTARILY by generous Americans. Infrastructure repair will be done by private enterprise. Rebuilding personal property – homes on beach, floodplain, etc – should be a personal expense of the insured (or not) property owner but, under FEMA (abetted by federal flood insurance), taxpayers will foot the bill for homes they will never be allowed to visit.

What’s a Grecian Urn? Opa-locka!

RPOF robocall inviting registered Democrats to a premature victory party on 11/1: Attempted voter suppression or making us so mad we are 100% sure to vote on or before Tuesday?

News alert : Obama causes hurricane , Romney saves puppies !

If doing away with bureaucracy, regulations and red tape makes things more efficient during a natural disaster, why don’t we do away with such impediments altogether?

If they would just enforce the truth in advertising law we wouldn’t have to endure these inane political ads. Just sayin’

Jeb’s red face at the Romney victory rally at Coral Gables was a bit disconcerting. Serious hypertension is a possibilty and should be attended to immediately. More likely it is due to anger, embarrassment or nervousness. Take two aspirin and don’t dare robo-call me in the morning, afternoon, or evening.

Electrical fire shuts down the Mag Lab? So much for our beautiful Fall weather!

If you have a hard time understanding what a “trillion dollars” is, think of it this way. If I had a million dollars and I wanted to invite other millionaires to a party so that the total money represented was one trillion, how many millionaires would I have to invite? It would have to be a very large party, one million millionaires would need to be invited. That means that sixteen million millionaires would have to give up all of their money to pay off the current national debt.

Pakistan, India and Bangladesh turned out to be a more than half-decent solution to the problem of Hindu states sandwiched between Muslim ones. Can you think of a better solution to the problem of Red states sandwiched between Blue ones?

When a Category One Hurricane hits New York City the media calls it a “Superstorm.” When the same size storm hits Florida it’s just another rainy day!

There are over 87,000 Floridians waiting to have their civil rights restored – if each one of these people has one parent, one adult friend and one adult relative, that would total 261,000 people. Put another way – 261,000 votes. So why aren’t these folks using their votes to get current governor, his cabinet and others who oppose changes out of office? Use your vote!

The Syrian Army has credited Syrian and Iranian scientists with creating Hurricane Sandy…. Very well, Bombs Away!

Jeb has been on his own apology tour the last two days in Florida on behalf of his brother. What’s done is done. In this world, you pick your friends and live with the consequences.
